Accountant

About Role:

Accrete is seeking a hands-on, process-oriented Senior Accountant to oversee core accounting activities while driving the development, enhancement, and standardization of accounting processes and systems. Reporting to the Controller, this individual will play a key role in improving accounting workflows, strengthening system integrations, and developing scalable processes that support accurate and efficient financial operations.

The ideal candidate combines strong accounting fundamentals with hands-on ERP expertise, particularly in NetSuite, and experience working with platforms such as Rippling. This individual must understand how transactions flow across systems and accounting functions, identify process gaps and inefficiencies, and translate those findings into practical workflow improvements, automation opportunities, and stronger controls.

A key responsibility will be ownership of the end-to-end accounts payable process, including invoice processing and approvals in Rippling, payment processing, synchronization with NetSuite, and reconciliation of resulting general ledger activity.

Key Responsibilities:

• Oversee day-to-day accounting activities, including general ledger maintenance, journal entries, account reconciliations, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and expense accounting.
• Execute and continuously improve month-end close procedures to support accurate, timely, and reliable financial reporting.
• Investigate account variances, resolve discrepancies, and maintain complete supporting schedules and documentation.
• Assist with the preparation of monthly financial statements, management reporting, and supporting schedules.
• Support external audits and tax compliance by preparing accounting records, reconciliations, and requested documentation.
• Ensure transactions are recorded accurately and consistently in accordance with company policies and U.S. GAAP.
• Own and continuously improve the end-to-end accounts payable process, from invoice intake, coding, and business approvals in Rippling through payment processing, synchronization, and general ledger posting in NetSuite.
• Monitor integration activity, investigate failed or incomplete synchronizations, resolve coding and mapping discrepancies, and maintain accurate accounts payable records and vendor balances.
• Develop and maintain standardized procedures and controls for invoice processing, approval routing, payment execution, reconciliation, and period-end cut-off.
• Serve as a hands-on NetSuite resource, supporting system functionality, transaction processing, reporting, account mapping, and accounting configurations.
• Develop, enhance, and standardize accounting workflows across NetSuite and integrated platforms, including Rippling for payroll, spend management, and accounts payable.
• Identify system limitations, manual workarounds, recurring errors, and process bottlenecks; develop and implement solutions to improve accuracy, efficiency, and scalability.
• Design and implement standardized procedures, process documentation, close checklists, and workflow controls.
• Collaborate with the Controller to strengthen internal controls, improve audit readiness, and support the continued development of the accounting function.
• Partner with People/HR, Operations, and other stakeholders to improve upstream processes that affect accounting accuracy and efficiency.
• Provide day-to-day guidance and support to accounting team members, promoting consistent execution and accountability.
• Train users on new or enhanced processes, system functionality, and accounting procedures.

Qualifications:

• CPA Required
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
• 7+ years of progressive accounting experience, preferably in a technology, SaaS, or fast-growing business with at least 4 years in public accounting.
• Strong hands-on NetSuite experience, including general ledger, reconciliations, reporting, transaction workflows, and system troubleshooting.
• Experience with Rippling or similar payroll, spend management, accounts payable, and employee expense platforms.
• Demonstrated ability to design, develop, and improve accounting workflows and cross-system processes.
• Strong understanding of transaction flows, system integrations, data mapping, and general ledger impacts.
• Experience managing accounts payable processes, including invoice processing, approval workflows, payment processing, reconciliations, and vendor account maintenance.
• Experience documenting procedures, implementing process improvements, and supporting automation initiatives.
• Solid understanding of month-end close, internal controls, and U.S. GAAP.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, project coordination, and communication skills.
• Ability to take ownership of assigned responsibilities and drive improvements from identification through implementation.
• Strong attention to detail, organizational skills, and ability to manage multiple priorities in a deadline-driven environment.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience supporting NetSuite integrations, system enhancements, and workflow configuration.
• Familiarity with multi-entity accounting, intercompany transactions, and foreign currency accounting.
• Experience in a growing technology or SaaS company.
• Experience developing accounting SOPs, close checklists, and internal control documentation.
• Experience improving accounting processes through automation and system-driven controls.

What Success Looks Like:

• Accounting workflows are clearly documented, standardized, and scalable.
• The Rippling-to-NetSuite accounts payable process operates reliably, with invoices, approvals, payments, and accounting entries properly tracked and reconciled.
• System integration errors, recurring discrepancies, and manual workarounds are reduced.
• Month-end close activities are more efficient, predictable, and accurate.
• Process gaps are identified proactively and addressed through sustainable solutions.
• Accounting team members and business stakeholders understand their responsibilities and follow established procedures.
• The Controller has greater visibility into accounting operations, fewer recurring processing issues, and reliable financial information for reporting and decision-making.
